Todd's BD and MHS Band Concert

I'm a little slow in getting pictures up lately, but here's a couple shots from the past few weeks.
 Todd celebrated his 52 birthday. After a yummy meal at the Texas Roadhouse, we went to LaRue and Tracie's for some cake and ice cream.  Of course it's "Crazy Cake" also know as Uncle LaRue's favorite cake, but hey, it's my favorite too.  Been a family 'birthday cake' tradition for years!
 Kristi had her first band concert with MHS on Nov 19th.  Because CBII is small, they performed with CBIII for a joint concert.  
 Kristi here on the end.  Sitting about 7th chair out of 13 flutes! (not too bad since she hasn't been in band for the last two years) That's a lot of flute players. But in CBII there is only two players. The girl that plays piccolo and Kristi.  As a flute player myself I was so proud of Kristi, and I have to say she's one of the few girls that holds her flute properly. (I wonder why?  Proper posture is a big thing with me while playing flute.  Kind of drilled it into her too)
 Rest, 1, rest 2, rest 3... or was it 4?  I always hated counting out the rest time, I always would loose count. Thankfully Kristi didn't. :-)
 Kristi's friend Kodi Rose on the end her with the clarinet.  I've known Kodi's mom since she was 11 years old, and remember the day Kodi was born.  (which means Kodi's mom is way younger than Kristi's mom. LOL)
Mr Boehm taking a bow.  I found him to be a very good director.  He is also a graduate from MHS.  Mandan knows how to grow good stock of musicians!
Great job kids, was an enjoyable concert (except for the drunk guy across the aisle).
